To be blunt, our grassroots campaign needs to compete against $41 million in fundraising.

Ayanna Pressley for Congress

Our calls for a ceasefire in Gaza to return hostages and save civilian lives have sparked a major backlash from AIPAC.

The right-wing Super PAC — which by the way, is funded by Republican mega-donors — has already signaled their plans to target me and other members of the Squad in our re-elections, and they recently announced record fundraising for the second half of 2023, with $41 million in cash at the start of this year.

We’ve seen reports that indicate AIPAC is looking for candidates right now to challenge me in a primary. I’m never going to back down from this fight, but we need to raise a strong amount of grassroots donations right now in order to compete against this massive, right-wing spending.

So I’m asking you to please back me up today with a donation of $25 or anything you can to help our campaign overcome whatever challenges come our way — from AIPAC or anyone working to put a stop to our movement.

Key Pro-Israel Group Reports Record Fundraising As It Targets The Squad

Calling for a ceasefire in Gaza, the safe return of all hostages, and delivery of life-saving humanitarian aid is the right thing to do — regardless of what ultra-wealthy Republican donors or special interest groups may think or do in response.

During the 2022 midterm elections, AIPAC was one of the largest outside spenders in Democratic primaries as they tried to unseat progressive incumbents. This November, as my colleagues and I continue to advocate to protect civilians in Gaza and Israel, their spending will grow to new extremes.

Together, we must be ready to compete against tens of millions of dollars of outside spending from AIPAC and others. We don’t have a Super PAC, but we have something even more powerful — supporters like you who will fight for justice with me.

I’m not afraid to speak truth to power, whatever the consequences. Today, I hope you’ll make sure we’re ready to fight back. Please make a donation of $25 or anything you can today to help make sure we can compete against AIPAC’s funding and win.

In solidarity,
